Re: My Heart Knows The Way #18
Nice job on that, Robert. Some nice production moves there...
Cool use of a hook to write a song.

Hi Robert,
I've just listened to "Hands On Faith". Very impressive! This one is a real toe-tapper and a thoroughly enjoyable listen.
Regards,
Noel

Hi Robert
I have just listened to "Be a Friend". Loved it. So gentle. The lyrics are really thought provoking. Loved the simple piano arrangement and the harmonies are spectacular. "You may unwittingly entertain angels"
I also listened to "Hands on Faith". Love it too.
Just as note that the link to soundcloud does not work on internet explorer for some reason. I had to use Chrome.

Thanks floydjane, Boehm, gibson, richmac, spacedog, noel96 and Josiec for the kind comments, also thanks Josie for the heads up on internet explorer, it is not working on my end with IE. I have pretty much quit using it for that very reason and also it has had so many security bugs in the past. Chrome seems less buggy, hopefully IE will work on the bugs as it is a much faster search engine at least on my computer. Also I am up to #19 a sad comedy song entitled "After The Crash" here is the link to my 5090 profile My Profile

Hi Robert,
a lot of stuff going on there.
I like your experiments (The Evil Rekach and CT 1),
but my favorite is Beyond Sunday.
What a beautiful song.
